Gomez is a fine rider - there's no doubt of that. I was his biggest fan on the old AOL boards - back when he was a rider who couldn't ever crack the top 5 standings out west and got awful mounts.
His ride on Hard Spun in the Belmont was also very interesting - he could have made an easy, clear, and unpressured lead with Hard Spun in that race - but instead he opted to strangle him off the pace and get drowned by Tiago in the process.
